- Remove the pan to a baking rack, then liberally brush the top of the bacon with the maple syrup mixture and let sit for 8 minutes.
- For the creamy ricotta: Whisk together the ricotta, orange zest, 1 tablespoon heavy cream and some salt and pepper in a bowl until smooth and creamy. If too thick and dry, add 1 to 2 more tablespoons heavy cream.
- For the waffles: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.

CRISPY CORNMEAL-BACON WAFFLES
A great Sunday Morning Breakfast. Don't over mix waffle batter; its chemistry resembles that of muffins ratther than that of pancakes, and similar rules apply. The less you beat, the better, and- as with muffin batter- lumpy is better than smooth. It is best to use the batter right after mixing it: baking powder gradually loses its puff power once it has been combined with the wet ingredients.

PECAN AND WILD BOAR BACON WAFFLES WITH SYRUP

People went out before dawn, worked a few hours, and came together around a huge breakfast table.'' These waffles, which he served at home to weekend guests, are a Southwestern rendition of traditional American fare.

Steps:
- To make the syrup, bring the sugar and water to a boil in a saucepan and stir until all the sugar is dissolved. Continue to boil, without stirring, until the syrup thickens slightly and its surface becomes shiny. Pour the syrup into a stainless steel bowl and stir in the pecans. Carefully add the whisky and the vanilla. Keep warm to be served over the waffles.

Chop the pecans to a medium-coarse consistency. Mix together with the cornmeal, flour, salt and baking powder and stir into the egg yolk mixture. Beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks, then gradually fold them into the batter. Cook in a hot waffle iron until brown, but still moist inside.

Steps:
- Place butter in a pot over medium heat; cook and stir until mostly melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Add flax meal and cinnamon; cook and stir until butter becomes a deep toasty brown, about 3 to 5 minutes. Pour browned butter into a large heat-resistent bowl.
- Mix half-and-half, milk, white sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract together in a pot over medium-high heat. As the mixture approaches a boil, scoop out 1/4 cup and whisk it with egg yolks in a bowl. Repeat this 3 or 4 times until egg mixture is almost doubled in volume. Stir egg mixture into milk mixture; simmer until custard begins to thicken, about 2 minutes.
- Pour custard through a strainer into the bowl with browned butter; stir until butter is incorporated. Cover bowl and refrigerate until completely cooled, 6 hours to overnight.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top.
- Mix brown sugar and 1 tablespoon maple syrup together in a small bowl.
- Place bacon on the wire rack on the baking sheet.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Flip bacon and cook until about 2/3 cooked, 5 to 10 minutes more. Flip bacon again and baste the tops with brown sugar-syrup mixture; bake for 5 minutes. Flip bacon and baste the other side; bake for 5 minutes. Continue this process until bacon is crisp and coating has candied and all the brown sugar-syrup mixture is used, 5 to 10 minutes more.
- Turn off oven and sprinkle sea salt over both sides of bacon; let sit for a few minutes in the oven. Chop bacon into bite-size pieces.
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees F (95 degrees C). Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drizzle 1 1/2 teaspoons maple syrup over the parchment paper, keeping the drops dime-size or smaller.
- Bake in the preheated oven until drops are bubbling and height of each drop is less than half of it was in the beginning, about 1 hour. Cool on baking sheet until stiff yet slightly sticky.
- Stir chilled custard and pour into ice cream maker; start churning. Start adding bacon bits, a few at a time, to churning custard about halfway through. Once the custard is getting thicker, add the syrup drops, 1 or 2 at a time to ensure they are evenly dispersed. Continue churning until custard is thick. Transfer to a freezer-safe container and freeze until it sets, 2 to 4 hours.

BROWN SUGAR BACON WAFFLES RECIPE
Provided by Kitchenbee
Number Of Ingredients 8
Steps:
- Cook bacon in medium skillet over medium heat 8-10 minutes or until browned and almost crisp, stirring occasionally; drain on paper towels. Reserve 2 tablespoons of bacon drippings from skillet. (reserve remaining drippings to brush over waffle iron, if desired.) Heat oven to 250. Place wire rack on large rimmed baking sheet. Whisk flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt in large bowl. Heat waffle iron until hot. Meanwhile, whisk egg yolks in medium bowl until smooth. Whisk in milk, butter and reserve 2 tablespoons bacon drippings until blended. (Butter can be used instead of drippings in the batter.) Make a well in center of flour mixture. Pour in egg yolk mixture; whisk until almost smooth. Beat egg whites in small bowl at medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. Stir one-third of the egg whites into waffle batter to lighten; gently fold in remaining egg whites. Fold in bacon. Lightly brush waffle iron with some of the remaining reserved bacon drippings. (Canola oil can be used instead of drippings.) Pour ½ - 2/3 cup batter per waffle onto waffle iron (exact amount depends on size of waffle iron). Cook 2 ½ - 4 minutes or until crisp and golden brown, or cook waffles according to manufacturer's directions for iron. Arrange waffles on rack on baking sheet; place in oven to keep warm. Repeat with remaining batter.
Tips:
- For crispy waffles, use a well-seasoned waffle iron and make sure it is hot before pouring in the batter.
- For fluffy waffles, use a batter that is light and airy. Separate the egg whites and yolks, and beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Then, fold the egg whites into the batter just before cooking.
- To add flavor to your waffles, try adding spices, herbs, or fruit to the batter. You can also top your waffles with butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
- If you are using a Belgian waffle maker, be sure to adjust the cooking time accordingly. Belgian waffles are thicker than regular waffles and will take longer to cook.
- To reheat waffles, place them in a toaster or toaster oven until they are warm and crispy.
Conclusion:
Bacon waffles are a delicious and versatile breakfast dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With so many different recipes to choose from, there is sure to be a bacon waffle recipe that you will love. So next time you are looking for a new breakfast idea, give bacon waffles a try.
